IAAI VIN Report — Check Before You Bid
Run a full vehicle history check on any IAAI listing before placing your bid.
IAAI (Insurance Auto Auctions) sells hundreds of thousands of vehicles annually. Many are insurance total losses. Check any listing with a VIN report before you bid. Also compare with Copart.
Why Check an IAAI Vehicle
IAAI vehicles carry significant risk without a VIN check.
IAAI specializes in insurance total-loss vehicles. Many have salvage titles, flood damage, or undisclosed structural issues.
- Verify the actual damage beyond listing photos
- Detect odometer tampering

IAAI vs Copart for Buyers
How the two auction platforms compare.
Both platforms sell insurance total-loss and salvage vehicles, but there are meaningful differences:
- Inventory composition — IAAI receives more insurance-direct inventory. Copart has more public consignment vehicles
- Fee structure — similar buyer premiums (15-18%), but gate fees and internet bidding fees differ. IAAI fees vs Copart fees
- Condition reporting — Copart provides more detailed damage photos. IAAI provides better insurance documentation on some listings
- Geographic coverage — Copart has more US locations. IAAI has stronger presence in certain regional markets
Regardless of platform, the pre-bid process is the same: copy the VIN, run a vehicle history report ($5), calculate total cost including fees and transport, and set your maximum bid.
